Dwayne Johnson dismisses identity politics and accuses the new administration of DC of scrapping his plans for Black Adam

Dwayne Johnson, who played Black Adam in DC Films’ Black Adam movie, recently put the blame on new leadership as the reason why his plans for the character and DC were scrapped.

Johnson appeared on Peacock’s Hart to Heart with Kevin Hart who asked him, “I want to know why, especially when there’s such a successful opening, you seem to have the appetite from your fan base for me. What’s the reason or reasons for the stopping of Black Adam”

Johnson responded, “I think that Black Adam got caught in a vortex of new leadership. And at that time, as we were creating Black Adam, developing it, shooting Black Adam, we got knocked down a little bit because of Covid and the shutdowns, got back up.”

“There were so many changes in leadership,” Johnson continued. “And as you know, any time you have a company, but especially that size and magnitude, that’s a publicly traded company and you have all those changes in leadership, you have people coming in who creatively, fiscally are going to make decisions that you may not agree with philosophically.”

He then reiterated, “So I think Black Adam was one of those movies that got caught in that web of new leadership. And, you know, that will always be one of the biggest mysteries, I think, not only for me and us on our end, but also throughout our business, because that’s a Kevin question.
